A grand stairwell strewn with a colorful spectrum of balloons led guests into a large atrium with an assortment of attractions at its center. “Roll up, roll up,” cheered the wait staff, clad in natty shirts and braces, introducing partygoers to the Christian Louboutin hoopla, a Stella McCartney hot dog stand (veggie, of course), a Repossi treasure hunt, and Louis Vuitton’s prizewinning hook-a-bag. “Only Natalia [Vodianova] could pull this off,” revealed Kloss from behind her Karlie’s Kookies cart, dressed in a sleek black Maiyet dress and gold jewels. “I am very happy to be a part of something so wonderful and fun, and for such a worthy cause,” said the Vogue cover star, before pausing to snap a selfie with Derek Blasberg and Jacquetta Wheeler, who lit up flashbulbs with her embellished gold Temperley London dress.

“It has been an incredibly intense few months of organization, as you can imagine. But it feels amazing to be here now; it’s very rewarding,” explained Vodianova in a red satin Ulyana Sergeenko dress, while perched at the helm of her Guerlain-themed kissing booth. “I want everyone to have a really fun night,” she added. Unsurprisingly, the line of dapper chaps awaiting a kiss from the exquisite Russian beauty snaked all the way back to the Swarovski Fashion Fortune Telling Experience, where the renowned Suzy Menkes sat behind a crystal ball. Other buzzed-about attractions included a kooky coconut hat shy, dreamed up by British milliner Stephen Jones and the haute couture face-painting booth with makeup maestro Pat McGrath.
